Fantastic. Ordered the monkey bowl and enjoyed it very much. Kind of spendy but nice and easy. Today is a good day!

I absolutely love this place!! Super yummy acai bowls, average price and have yummy toppings. Tastes super fresh. Sign up for rewards and get 100 points immediately. You can earn free stuff fast. I got 2 free coffees. I wasn't a fan of the latte but I did love the macadamia nut bullet coffee. I used to love the Waikiki location by international market I am super sad that one closed. I hope they bring one back to central Waikiki. But still love this place and their cute merch. Nice staff, quick to get food and fun outdoor seating.

Got the smoothie and açaí. Both were pretty bland and the açaí was icy / gritty like it had frost bite. I've had way better quality at other places. I did like the honey and coconut dust topping.

My dad ordered the Paradise Punch smoothie and I liked it so much that I had to buy my own! That drink has bee pollen in it which I've never seen. It has such a fresh and tropical flavor which I loved. There's limited indoor and outdoor seating but the vibe is very friendly.

Service was quick, menu was easy to read, overall ease of getting there and getting out was good. Mostly street parking though. The ambience of the area was very surfers/California/tropical/happy. I am giving it three stars because the açaí bowl's actual flavor was lacking for me. Seems like the bowls are a big part of the menu, and they should just be a little bit more high-quality in my opinion. However, I would give their savory food a four star rating as the sandwiches were good. Smoothies also seemed to be quite good as well.

Way too much granola
Grace A.

The bowls are granola heavy, emphasis on HEAVY. Came here in a group and we ordered tropical bowls. Not extremely great because it was too much granola. Should have been balanced with more of the base and fruits. Not a fan and won't be back. When I let the ladies know that myself and my group found that it was loaded with too much granola, they didn't provide a resolution and that was disappointing but affirming to know that I won't return.

Açaí bowls after hiking was a MUST for my friends and I. We tried Sunrise Shack -- per our friends and families recommendations. We ordered the Tropical Bowl and our friends ordered the Blue Dream Bowl. This was so refreshing and felt so healthy :-) Mahalo Sunrise Shack!

The monkey bowl
Jenny C.

My fiancé and I made a quick stop after a dip in the ocean. We were greeted by a friendly staff. The vibe of the establishment just feels positive and welcoming We ordered the monkey bowl, berry toast, and iced cappuccino. It felt good to nourish our bodies with fresh whole foods. The blueberries on the berry toast were my favorite! They were big and the texture..it felt like biting into a grape. They also offer parking behind the back of the building, which is always nice. They are a little bit pricey. It's not a place I would visit on the daily, but definitely on days when I want to treat myself!

Great acai bowls. In a nice small area. Their service is very friendly and the food is so fresh! Parking is tight so you may want to park at the shopping center/ grocery store area and walk to it. It's only a 2 minute walk.

This spot is a little pricey, but it's really cute and close to Waikiki. The smoothie bowls and smoothies are great and their coffees are kinda mid. The folks working there are really nice and the service was pretty fast! It can get busy since it's next to Leonards. Next time, I'd skip the coffee and stick with the smoothies and bowls :) everything is made fresh and tastes healthy. The place is also very instragramable and aesthetic if that matters to you.

Stopped by since friends were craving Leonards and I wanted something a little lighter. The staff + owner are super friendly here! I ordered the paradise punch, and added banana to be blended and they accommodated my request. They also offer samples. Such a beautiful smoothie! It is on the pricier side for what it is though.

I absolutely loved this place. The staff was extremely nice, gave good recommendations and the service was fast. The place is a bright yellow you can not miss it. It definitely fits the Hawaii vibe. If your looking for a quick but filling breakfast this is the place to stop. The toast was amazing.

Entrance

Refreshments in Kapahulu, Honolulu, Hawaii... We saw this new location of The Sunrise Shack and decided to check it out! We have been to the Ala Moana Center's location in the Makai Food Court. I think I like that location better than this Kapahulu location because of the air-conditioning and easier parking. The Sunrise Shack on Kapahulu Avenue has a small parking lot along the sidewalk of Kaimuki Avenue. Look carefully for the designated signs, park, and walk around the corner to the entrance. It's the former location of Kono's. Inside, the cozy shop had a small, portable air conditioner. I couldn't feel any cool air, so I had to consume my bowl outside, along the sidewalk. We sat on chairs and watched the traffic go by. The exhaust fumes and dust were our ambiance. Service was friendly and efficient! The diligent cashier even went outside to sweep up leaves at the entrance. She's so good! I got the Tropical Bowl which had a mango and banana base. The toppings were little chunks of pineapple, coconut flakes, pitaya sauce, and crunchy granola. Yum! I'll go back to the Ala Moana Center location... even though Leonard's Malasadas is right next door... very tempting and convenient!

Indeed it is a good day!

Such a nice treat after laying at the beach for several hours. I got the tropical bowl and it was…read moredelicious! Very refreshing. The staff is very friendly and ready to help with your order. I love the vibes from this place, vibrant colors and very much sun-kissed energy. I see this business is marked as temp closed -- it is very much open lol.

Super late review -…read more I'm sad. I really wanted to love this place but I just couldn't. I don't want to be that person when this place has an overall rating of 4.5 but this is just my honest opinion. I got the blue dream and yes it was very ascetically pleasing, but it was just too icy. Before coming to this place i read a couple of reviews that also said the same thing and i didn't understand what that meant, but now I do. There are a lot of flavorless, just regular, small shards of ice in the bowl. On top of that, the moment I received my bowl, it was already borderline melted. So that got me thinking, how can it be melted and icy at the same time? The only explanation that I can think of is just ice additive/fillers. It's not pure cold acai or whatever is in the bowl you choose, but there's a mixture of ice in it too. Yes I understand, it's Waikiki, everything is more expensive, but the added topping prices on top of the already expensive bowl prices just don't make sense. You want a beautiful looking bowl with a lot of different toppings, yet some toppings can go up to 1 dollar PER topping. I don't know if I've just been spoiled by a couple places in SoCal, but at those places they have unlimited toppings and those bowls are the best that there is. I'm not bringing any bias from other locations, but this is just an honest review based on my experience today.

Our favorite coffee spot in Hawaii! We arrived at 7:30am and the line was already out the door…read more Thankfully the service was speedy. Here are our favorite recommendations: - Pandan Iced Latte: omg! This drink is da bomb. It was so good I came back the next day to order it. lol - Liliko'i Moana Bowl açaí is a must. We ordered a small and it was large enough to share. - Ube bagel with Ube cream cheese. Wow sooo good! Perfect with our coffee. - Hawaiian Honey Latte is perfect. Not too sweet but a perfect strong balance, I learned hawaiian honey is darker and more complex than regular honey so it's less one-note sweet and more layered. So good! It gets pretty crowded early on so I'd recommend arriving when they open or after 9 am. The ambiance is busy but there is plenty of available seating outside and around the edges near the balcony.

Island Vintage Coffee was such a great breakfast spot! I had the Eggs Benedict, and it was…read moreabsolutely delicious! The portions are definitely large enough to split if you're not super hungry. The coffee was delicious too and paired perfectly with breakfast. It was pretty busy when we visited, but the service was still great. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and kept things moving despite the crowd. Great food, great coffee, and great service. Definitely worth a stop for breakfast!
